One defendant who called to hang Nancy Pelosi is claiming she doesn't need an attorney because she is "divinely immune" from the court and laws: https://www.businessinsider.com/capitol-riot-defendant-who-threatened-nancy-pelosi-rejects-lawyer-2021-7?amp

One wonders if Trump ran that deranged rant by his lawyers before sending it, and if he did, what they had to say about it.

I've seen enough: in a huge victory for the eventual prosecution, former Pres. Donald Trump (R) did not run this 14-page-long letter written single-spaced like a serial killer by a lawyer before submitting it to the Jan. 6th Committee.

LOL!

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/donald-trump-2020-election-indictment-lawyer-john-lauro-rcna98406

If former President Donald Trump committed a “technical violation of the Constitution,” it doesn’t mean he necessarily broke any criminal laws, John Lauro, Trump’s criminal defense attorney, argued Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press."

...

“A technical violation of the Constitution is not a violation of criminal law," Lauro contended, saying it was "just plain wrong" to suggest that Trump had pressed Pence to break the law.

"And to say that is contrary to decades of legal statutes,” he continued.

“These kinds of constitutional and statutory disagreements don’t lead to criminal charges," Lauro said. "And one thing that Mr. Pence has never said is that he thought President Trump was acting criminally."

Appeals court upholds key provisions of Trump gag order in federal Jan. 6 case

Quote
An appeals court largely upheld a gag order limiting former President Trump’s statements as he faces federal prosecution for seeking to block the transfer of power, broadening his ability to attack special counsel Jack Smith while leaving in place limitations on other parties.

The ruling from a three-judge panel of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals largely affirms a prior ruling from Judge Tanya Chutkan, who barred Trump from making statements that “target” foreseeable witnesses, court staff and prosecutors.

The appeals court refined that directive, barring Trump from any statements “made with the intent to materially interfere with, or to cause others to materially interfere with” the course of the case.

But it removed Smith from the list of protected court staff, giving Trump free reign to go after a prosecutor he is fond of taunting as “deranged."

https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4350074-appeals-court-upholds-key-provisions-of-trump-gag-order-in-federal-jan-6-case/

Gag order back on but special exemption for Smith explicitly, uggh.

Special counsel goes directly to Supreme Court to resolve whether Trump has immunity from prosecution

Quote
Special counsel Jack Smith on Monday asked the Supreme Court to decide whether Donald Trump has any immunity from criminal prosecution for alleged crimes he committed while in office – the first time that the high court will weigh in on the historic prosecution of the former president.

The extraordinary request is an attempt by Smith to keep the election subversion trial – currently scheduled for early March – on track. Smith is asking the Supreme Court to take the rare step of skipping a federal appeals court and quickly decide a fundamental issue of the case against Trump.

Smith’s team has asked the court to review district Judge’s Tanya Chutkan ruling that as a former president, Trump is not immune from the election subversion prosecution case brought in Washington DC. Lawyers for the former president have argued that Trump’s alleged actions over the 2020 election results were part of his official duties at the time and therefore he is protected by presidential immunity.

Prosecutors also asked the court to decide whether Trump is protected by double jeopardy.
